The club have already signed one new forward this week. Clinton N’Jie arrived from Olympique Lyonnais. They are also believed to be after Saido Berahino of West Brom – both great young talents to run off of Harry Kane up top.

But adding some top experience to the attack department would certainly help matters at Tottenham Hotspur.

The issue might be his cost. He is likely to be a rather expensive acquisition, which is a sore subject for Tottenham fans at the moment.

They spent big on players in recent times in deals that have backfired and will not be keen on giving the fans any other expensive flops to lament.

But if Lavezzi is available at a cut-price fee the 30-year-old would be perfect for Spurs.
